DRUMMER BUDDY RICH TO SPUR CHEST DRIVE
In a gigantic rally designed to swell Community Chest contributions, Buddy Rich, world famous drummer, will appear with Loumell Morgan’s trio on the stage of Bovard auditorium tomorrow noon.
This year’s quota of $1000 has been partly subscribed to by fraternity and sorority contributions, but all students may make donations and receive lapel pins from Greek women.
Sororities will compete for the Phelps-Terkel cup, which is awarded annually to the house turning in the greatest
amount of money collected from the student body at large.
Bud Townsend, campaign manager, reports that the Community Chest quota has not been met for three years, but that all indications point to success in the attempt this year.
Sororities and fraternities who have failed to do so should turn in checks for their Community Chest contributions to Bud Townsend by 1 p.m. today in the Student Union lounge.
Houses unable to meet this deadline should see Townsend immediately, he announced.
Because of the many other charitable organizations now
making drives for those stricken in war-torn Europe, Townsend feels that students may forget the needs of unfortunates here in America.
Blitzed by the rain, the giant thermometer used to record the total contributions of Trojans will continue business as usual at the same old stand, he stated.
Buddy Rich and his drums are currently being heard at the Club Trouville. Rich, formerly with Tommy Dorsey, has proved a Trojan favorite on many occasions and should aid i in the campaign, according to Townsend.

Jury Charges Local School With War Fraud
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28—<U.R>— National Schools of Los Angeles, two of its officials and a real estate operator today were indicted by a federal grand jury here on charges of conspiring to defraud the government on an army contract to train radio personnel.
Those named were Joseph A. Rosenkranz, president, and Louis J. Rosenkranz, secretary-treasurer, of National Schools, and Francis J. Buckley, real estate operator.
The indictment charged Buck- . ley negotiated contracts with the army quartermaster and signal corps for training radio operators and mechanics at a cost of $715,-590. It accused the Rosenkranzs of agreeing to pay Buckley commissions on the contract, despite specific prohibitions against payment of such fees.

This, however, did not preclude the likelihood that air and sea battles still raged in areas where communiques on the progress of fighting would be slowed by actual combat.

Because of the dimout and gasoline rationing, the alumni association has banned house decorations along sorority and fraternity row. Consequently, a Homecoming slogan will not be chosen.
During the last World war, Homecoming celebrations were discontinued for the duration. The alumni association has attempted to continue the festivities this year even though a few of the customs of the week must be postponed. NOTRE DAME PLAYS
The activities this year precede the annual gridiron classic between Notre Dame and SC. In its first coliseum appearance before the general public, SC’s division of the NROTC will march en masse during half time.

Because of the dimout and gasoline rationing, the alumni association has banned house decorations along sorority and fraternity row. Consequently, a Homecoming slogan will not be chosen.
During the last World war, Homecoming celebrations were discontinued for the duration. The alumni association has attempted to continue the festivities this year even though a few of the customs of the week must be postponed. NOTRE DAME PLAYS
The activities this year precede the annual gridiron classic between Notre Dame and SC. In its first coliseum appearance before the general public, SC’s division of the NROTC will march en masse during half time.
Following the game on Saturday, Nov. 28. the Homecoming dance will be held in the Fiesta room of the Ambassador hotel to climax the 58th alnmni event.
